STARTING AND OPERATING 121
PARKSENSE REAR PARK ASSIST —
IF EQUIPPED
The ParkSense Rear Park Assist system provides
visual and audible indications of the distance
between the rear fascia and a detected obstacle
when backing up (e.g. during a parking maneuver).
If your vehicle is equipped with an automatic
transmission, the vehicle brakes may be
automatically applied and released when
performing a reverse parking maneuver if the
system detects a possible collision with an
obstacle.
NOTE:

The driver can override the automatic braking
function by pressing the gas pedal, turning
ParkSense off via ParkSense switch, or
changing the gear while the automatic brakes
are being applied.

Automatic brakes will not be available if Elec -
tronic Stability Control (ESC) is not available.

Automatic brakes will not be available if there is
a faulted condition detected with the ParkSense
Park Assist system or the Braking System
Module.

The automatic braking function may not provide
enough vehicle deceleration to avoid colliding
with a detected obstacle depending on vehicle
speed, road conditions, and brake capability.

The automatic braking function may not be
applied fast enough for moving obstacles that
approach the rear of the vehicle from the left
and/or right sides.

The automatic braking function can be
enabled/disabled from the Customer Program -
mable Features section of the Uconnect system.

ParkSense will retain its last known configura -
tion state for the automatic braking function
through ignition cycles.
The automatic braking function is intended to
assist the driver in avoiding possible collisions with
detected obstacles when backing up in REVERSE
gear.
NOTE:

The system is provided to assist the driver and
not to substitute the driver.

The driver must stay in full control of the
vehicle's acceleration and braking and is
responsible for controlling the vehicle's move -
ments.
For limitations of this system and
recommendations/precautions, see
Ú
page 125.
ParkSense will retain the last system state
(enabled or disabled) from the last ignition cycle
when the ignition is changed to the ON/RUN
position.
ParkSense can be active only when the gear
selector is in REVERSE. If ParkSense is enabled at
this gear selector position, the system will remain
active until the vehicle speed is increased to
approximately 7 mph (11 km/h) or above. When in
REVERSE and above the system's operating speed,
a warning will appear within the instrument cluster
display indicating the vehicle speed is too fast. The
system will become active again if the vehicle
speed is decreased to speeds less than
approximately 6 mph (9 km/h).
